Boom! The classic potato gun harnesses the combustion of flammable vapor.

This is my new gun.Because I don't have a BBQ ignitor or other sorse of big spark I use a second small gun to ignite the big chamber=>reliable ignition no mater how bad the mix is.

hey good job. where are you going to fire it? whats your primart ammo?
in the upcoming presidential election, there will be several candidates who will be running, one of whom is Hillary Clinton. Now WAIT A SECOND!!! I though there was some sort of rule that prevented someone from serving more than two terms in office. Vote Against Hillary: Presidential Elections 08

I don't think so pimpmann22.If you see my first guns.O2 brech loading or pump action, I had a full auto wich was destroed.I'm a little disapointed of the fire power.Not bigger then my sniper rifle.And I can't add O2 to the fuel.

I like the idea of the gun lighting another gun. Have you ever considered having it light in multiple places? Like, a super-multi-point-ignition system?

The ignition is in the center.I think that's enough.And 5% O2 in the mix will be much better and reliable then the "super-multi-point-ignition system"
